A high resolution micrograph of the proximal ends of the basal bodies of a cirrus of Euplotes. the basal bodies are embedded in a perforated plate of electron opaque material. Microtubules arise from ...

An image of the transition from basal bodies to cilia within a portion of one of the oral membranelles of Euplotes. Parasomal sacs occur between the rows of basal bodies although these endocytic ports...

A view of the cortex showing early endosomes are often cup shaped and can have several coated evaginations arising from the rim of the cup. TEM taken on 8/10/65 by R. Allen with RCA EMU3F operating at...

An individual cirrus of Euplotes with 91 cilia/basal body complexes. The transition from basal body to cilium can be followed from right to left in each row. Small vesicles, many containing electron o...

A glancing view of the cortex of Conchophthirus reveals details of cortical structure. This includes the nature of the cell membrane and the alveolar membranes that reside immediately below the surfac...

A glancing view of the thigmotactic ciliature of Conchophthirus reveals details of cortical structure. CIL:39231 is a near serial section. Both exhibit the characteristic zig-zag kinetal arrangement o...

High resolution micrograph of cubic membrane array which represents the cell’s method of storing large quantities of lipid and protein bilayers into the smallest possible volume. These membranes can...

A high resolution image of a longitudinal microtubular ribbon sandwiched between the alveoli and the epiplasm in the crest of the pellicular ridge. A parasomal sac, the distal end of basal body, the p...

Image of a dikinetid of Euplotes shows the transverse microtubular ribbon as well as a postciliary ribbon extending from the posterior basal body. Vesicles containing electron opaque bodies are typica...
